DWx Posted January 16, 2012 Posted January 16, 2012 Barboza's finish was just beautiful to watch: http://youtu.be/pVmLZgZ1Ld4(apologies for poor video, YouTube keeps taking all the good ones off) "Everything has its beauty, but not everyone sees it." ~ Confucius
Wastelander Posted January 17, 2012 Posted January 17, 2012 It definitely was, and I'm sure my sensei will be thrilled since he loves using that kick in sparring . Here's a page that has a good video on it that has both normal speed and super-slow-motion: http://deadspin.com/5876227/edson-barbozas-roadhouse+style-face+kick-knockout-is-even-better-when-slowed-down-500I really liked the combination he used right before the spinning hook kick, too.

DWx Posted January 17, 2012 Author Posted January 17, 2012 nice vid Wastelander Really does show Etim stiff as a board when he gets hit. Don't usually make any special effort to watch the UFC but if there's gonna be more of striking like this.. "Everything has its beauty, but not everyone sees it." ~ Confucius

Any time Barboza, Njokuani, Machida or Siver fight you should probably be watching if you like to see good striking!
